With our current squad and performances and with Brucey's,"Every player has a price" quote the question is.

Who out of our squad would you not sell?

Right now I struggle to name one.
 
only one i'd really like to stay is jordan, but even then, a adam johnson replacement would apease me....

the rest, couldn't care if there is a mass overhaul,

SOB Save Our Bruce....
 
I think we have the makings of a good team, we need some well considered summer signings

Team
Gordon

Bardsley
Bramble
????? (Would like this to be Onouha)
????? (overlapping, attacking fullback)

Jordan
Catts
?????? (Goalscoring attacking central midfield)
Sess

Gyan
????? (20 goal a season forward)

Subs

Goalkeeper - Mingolet

Defence
El Mohammady
Turner
Ferdinand

Midfield
Richardson
Malbranque (possibly last season)
Myler
Colback

Forwards
Campbell
Noble
Welbeck (if we can get him on loan or sign)

Gone
Mensah (not fit enough)
Zenden (to old)
Muntari
Angeleri
Riveros
+ all out on loan

We wont get much for what we need to move on so a large input required again from ES. Big question is should SB spend the money
 
think john seems to be in favour of keeping a fair bit of our current squad, that's ok,

got a feeling some of us see more radical changes though....
 
Bruce needs to look closer to home as to who will go in the summer as his job is not entirely safe but, back to the question in hand and the players who I'd keep out of the 25 man squad
Gordon, Mignolet although I think Gordon will go nothing malicious in that but just an inkling.
Bardsley, Adams (not seen him so will give him the benefit), Turner not my favourite player but, will come good I think.
Catts, Henderson (if we can keep hold of him), Meyler, Knott (see Adams above), Sessignon bit of a cliché but needs more time.
Campbell, Gyan, Lynch and Noble (again see Adams above). Welbeck will be back at Man Utd to either be loaned out again or as a first team player there.
The rest are in my opinion surplus to requirements although I would definitely try to tempt Zenden with a coaching role.
14 out of 25 is fairly pitiful but like it or not SAFC is a business and hard decisions need to be made in the summer from top to bottom.
 
Mignolet, Gyan, Henderson, Cattermole, Sessegnon.

The rest, well, I'd not exactly be inviting offers, but if something decent came along...
 
Gordon, Turner,Bramble, Cattermole, Henderson, Gyan.

That is the spine of our team and if we lost 2 of those it would be a travesty. Getting them all fit and playing next year is a priority IMO
 
Commachio, just think that you cant keep on getting 8 new players every summer, the team never gets to settle and gel.

The players I identified are , I think, good enough for the first 11 or squad but we need those couple of quality signings, a goalscoring attacking midfielder (a young Lampard) and a 20 goal a season forward (along the lines of DB)

Trouble is I dont know who they are but think that most teams in the Premiership need these things and they will cost a lot
